My $0.02: I'd like to see the Cabrillo "certificate" field adopted and honored,
with the default being to send the certificate.
I'll admit that I was amused to get two certificates in the mail for last
year's ARRL DX CW: my semi-serious effort from home apparently won my tiny
class, and the 90 minutes I spent Sunday afternoon operating a remote station
in KP4 (because I was getting bored) also apparently won a different tiny
class.
I can see new or casual operators getting a kick out of them...and if they were
delivered a week or two before the next running, they make good
advertising/reminders.
But for more serious/consistent contesters who may have large collections of
certificates, or for those of us who strive for paperlessness, the ability to
opt out (or to get a pdf) would be nice.
